I am back on here after a couple years and have more information about the Horbach/Gorbach family since then. I had someone on facebook who translated one of the letters. it was from Vladimir Sherbyuk, the son of Artem's sister, Paraskeva. Paraskeva married John/Ivan and they stayed in the Horbach/Gorbach home in Stetski. She had three children with John/Ivan: Vladimir, Steven and Nadia. Paraskeva, his mom, died in 1933 and they were cared for by their Aunt Lokia and nephew, Paul, after that. The home that Artem, Paraskeva, and their family lived in was standing until 1961, when it was torn down and rebuilt by Vladimir. Vladimir married Ania and had six children. His brother, Steven, joined the Army and moved with his wife to Crimea. Nadia moved to Orenburg. 2015-06-27 22:55:50ZCorrine_Alexis_Smrkovskyhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/319.2/mb.ashxRe: Looking for relatives probably in Australiahttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/169.3/mb.ashx

My grandfather's name was John Hnachuk (changed it when he immigrated to Canada mid-late 1920's). It was probably spelled as Hnatiuk. He lived in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and came to Vancouver with my Baba and children about 1947. <br>John Hnachuk was born in Yuzenetz, Roumania. HIS father's name was George Hnatiuk, and his mother's name was Helen Pitzek. Both born in Roumania. This information came from his marriage registration.<br>When he lived in Winnipeg, at one point he worked in a meat factory, but when the family moved to Vancouver he got a good job working as a labourer for the city. <br>I do not know anything more of this man, prior to his living in Winnipeg. <br>I know that somebody out there knows of this man, as when he died tragically in 1960 while working, a family member, or a man saying that they were his 'cousin' showed up at the house, to the surprise of my Baba. <br>Any information would be greatly appreciated. 2013-10-28 01:37:34Zhaslbeckhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/146.12/mb.ashxRe: Looking for relatives probably in Australiahttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/169.2/mb.ashx

In early times Bukovyna was inhabited by the Thracian tribes of the Getae and Dacians. From the 3rd to the 9th century AD various nomads traversed Bukovyna: in the 4th century East Slavic tribes began to appear and the region was part of the Antean state (see Antes); in the 9th century the Tivertsians and White Croatians were the local inhabitants.<br><br>In the 10th century Bukovyna became part of the Kyivan Rus’ state. When this state was divided at the end of the 11th century, Bukovyna was eventually incorporated into the Principality of Galicia-Volhynia. The church in Bukovyna was administered by Kyiv metropoly until 1302, when it was transferred to Halych metropoly. With the Tatar invasion in 1241 Bukovyna fell under Tatar domination. At the beginning of the 14th century in northern Bukovyna an autonomous territory called the Shypyntsi land arose. When the Hungarian king Louis I defeated the Tatars in 1342, southern Bukovyna came under Hungarian rule. During this period Romanians from Transylvania and the Maramureş region began to settle in Bukovyna. Voevode Bogdan I, the founder of the Moldavian state, freed Bukovyna from Hungary (1359–65). From then to 1774 Bukovyna belonged to Moldavia and shared its fate. From 1387 to 1497 Moldavia recognized the nominal supremacy of Poland. In this period the people of Bukovyna took part in the Mukha rebellion against the Polish and Moldavian nobles (1490–2). From 1514 Moldavia recognized the supremacy of Turkey, and towards the end of the century it became increasingly dominated by that country. The Romanianization of Moldavia, where the Ukrainians played an important role and literary Ukrainian was the official language, and of Bukovyna became more intense after 1564, when the capital of Moldavia was moved from Suceava in Bukovyna to Iaşi. Yet Bukovyna maintained its ties with the rest of Ukraine. Cossack regiments (under Ivan Pidkova, Severyn Nalyvaiko, and Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny) fought on Moldavian territory against the Turks. Some of Bukovyna's population participated in Bohdan Khmelnytsky's national rebellion. Tymish Khmelnytsky died near Suceava in 1653 fighting a coalition of Poland, Transylvania, and Wallachia.<br><br>In the cultural sphere, Bukovyna benefited from the achievements of the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood and the Kyivan Mohyla Academy. From 1401 to 1630 an independent metropoly (to which the eparchy of Rădăuţi was subordinated) existed in Suceava. From 1630 to 1782 Suceava metropoly came under the metropolitan of Iaşi. From the 16th to the mid-19th century the opryshoks were active in the mountainous part of Bukovyna bordering on Galicia; among them was the famous Oleksa Dovbush. At the end of the Moldavian period Bukovyna was sparsely populated and was economically and culturally backward.<br><br>1774–1918. Taking advantage of the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–74, Austria annexed the part of northern Moldavia that included Chernivtsi, Seret, Rădăuţi, and Suceava. Turkey and Moldavia had no choice but to accept this action. The new administrative entity was given the name of Bukovyna (first used in a document in 1412). The Austrian government brought in a series of reforms: in 1781 serfdom was abolished; in 1782 a separate Bukovynian eparchy was established and in 1783 subordinated to the Serbian metropolitan in Sremski Karlovci; in 1873 the eparchy was elevated to an independent metropoly with Yevhen Hakman as the first metropolitan; schools were then founded. Austria opened new sources of immigration into Bukovyna from the neighboring lands—Transylvania, Moldavia, Galicia—as well as from the heartland of Austria and Germany. As a result, there was an influx of Germans, Poles, Jews, Hungarians, Romanians, and Ukrainians, and by the beginning of the 19th century the population of Bukovyna was three times that of 1775. German was the official language in Bukovyna, although Romanian and Ukrainian could be used in transactions with the government.<br><br>At first Austria held Bukovyna under military rule. From 1774 to 1786 it was governed by the generals G. Splényi and K. von Enzenberg. In 1787 it was attached as a separate region to Galicia, a status it retained until 1849. During this period, in 1842–5 and particularly in 1848–9, peasant revolts broke out in the Hutsul area of Bukovyna. The peasants demanded social and political rights. Corvée was abolished in 1848. Then elections to the parliament in Vienna were held, and five Ukrainians (among them Lukian Kobylytsia), two Romanians, and one German were elected to represent Bukovyna. On 4 March 1849 Bukovyna became a crown land with an autonomous administration and its own president. It attained full autonomy in 1861, when it was granted a special statute, a regional diet (its first marshal was Bishop Yevhen Hakman), and its own executive.<br><br>Writers such as Yurii Fedkovych, Sydir Vorobkevych, and later Olha Kobylianska were the heralds of the 19th-century Ukrainian renaissance in Bukovyna. The first Ukrainian association, known as Ruska Besida in Bukovyna, was established in 1869. In 1870 the Ruska Rada society was founded, and in 1875 a student organization called Soiuz, in which Russophiles at first predominated. From 1884 the populists (see Populism, Western Ukrainian) assumed the leadership in Ukrainian public life. They founded a number of new organizations and published the periodical Bukovyna (1885–1918). Led by Stepan Smal-Stotsky, Yerotei Pihuliak, Omelian Popovych, and Mykola Vasylko, the Ukrainians of Bukovyna made important gains in the political, civic, economic, cultural, and religious fields.<br><br>Not until 1890 did Ukrainians win representation at the regional diet and in the Vienna parliament, where their representatives from Bukovyna and Galicia formed the Ukrainian Club. After 1911 Ukrainians exerted greater influence in the administration of Bukovyna. By that year they had 16 representatives in the diet. The vice-marshals of the diet were Stepan Smal-Stotsky (from 1904) and Rev Teofil Drachynsky (from 1911). At the turn of the century the populists split into various parties: the National Democrats (led by Smal-Stotsky until 1911, then by Mykola Vasylko and Drachynsky), the Radicals (founded in 1906 and led by Teodot Halip and Ilko Popovych), and the Social Democrats (led by Yosyp Bezpalko and Mykola Havryshchuk).<br><br>Cultural-educational work was carried on by the Ruska Besida in Bukovyna society, which had nine branches in various towns, 150 reading rooms in villages, and a membership of 13,000; by the Ukrainska Shkola society, and by the Sich societies (a sports and firefighting organization). In Chernivtsi the People's Home network was responsible for cultural work. The Selianska Kasa union of agricultural associations headed a system of savings and loan co-operatives of the Raiffeisen type. Ukrainian schools were well organized in Bukovyna; there were 216 elementary schools and 6 secondary schools (4 gymnasiums and 2 teachers' seminaries). At Chernivtsi University, which was founded in 1875 with German as the language of instruction, there were three chairs besides the chair in Ukrainian language and literature whose holder lectured in Ukrainian. Generally speaking, up to 1914 Bukovyna had the best Ukrainian schools and cultural-educational institutions of all the regions of Ukraine.<br><br>In the religious field the Orthodox Ukrainians of Bukovyna strove for equality with the Romanians. They achieved it in part on the eve of the First World War. The consistory was divided into two branches—Ukrainian and Romanian. A bishop was appointed for the Ukrainians (Taras Tyminsky); two Ukrainian chairs were established in the faculty of theology; and church publications appeared in Ukrainian. The Greek Catholic deanery of Chernivtsi was subordinated to the Lviv archeparchy from 1811 and from 1885 to the Stanyslaviv eparchy. The efforts of Ukrainians to divide Bukovyna into a Ukrainian- and a Romanian-governed section did not succeed. Ukrainian achievements were accompanied by friction with the Romanians, especially at the turn of the century. Rural overpopulation and difficult economic conditions forced many peasants to emigrate overseas (almost 50,000 left in 1891–1910) and led to peasant strikes in 1901–5 (see Peasant strikes in Galicia and Bukovyna).<br><br>During the First World War Bukovyna was a war zone and therefore suffered great losses. In 1915 Ukrainian representatives from Bukovyna and from Galicia organized the General Ukrainian Council in Vienna (with Mykola Vasylko as vice-president).<br><br>1918–40. On 25 October 1918 the Ukrainian Regional Committee, with Omelian Popovych as chairman, was established in Chernivtsi to represent the Ukrainian National Council in Bukovyna. This committee organized a massive public rally in Chernivtsi on 3 November to demand that Bukovyna be attached to Ukraine, and on 6 November it took power in the Ukrainian part of Bukovyna, including Chernivtsi. Romanian moderates, led by A. Onciul, accepted the division of Bukovyna into Ukrainian and Romanian sections, but Romanian conservatives under I. Flondor's leadership rejected this idea. On 11 November the Romanian army occupied Chernivtsi and all Bukovyna in spite of resistance from the Ukrainians. The General Congress of Bukovyna, which was hastily summoned by the Romanians, declared the unification of Bukovyna with Romania on 28 November. The Treaty of Saint-Germain, signed on 10 September 1919, recognized Romania's right to the part of Bukovyna settled by Romanians. On 10 August 1920 the Treaty of Sèvres ceded all of Bukovyna to Romania. Official representatives of the Western Ukrainian National Republic, the Ukrainian National Republic, and the Ukrainian SSR protested this action.<br><br>The Romanian government canceled all the autonomous powers of Bukovyna and turned it into an ordinary Romanian province. The Ukrainian school system was dismantled; Ukrainian cultural and civic life was restricted; and the Ukrainian church was persecuted (Romanian was introduced into the liturgy). In 1918–28 and 1937–40 Bukovyna found itself in a state of siege. Ukrainians were particularly oppressed when the Liberal party was in power, and they made few gains when the National Peasant party took office. In the 1920s the Ukrainian section of the Social Democratic Party of Bukovyna (led by Vasyl Rusnak) became active. The left wing of the party (under Serhii Kaniuk) became the Communist Party of Bukovyna. In time the Ukrainian National party (1928–38), under the leadership of Volodymyr Zalozetsky-Sas, Vasyl Dutchak, and Yurii Serbyniuk, became the legal political representative of the Ukrainian population. Having reached an understanding with Romanian political parties, the Ukrainian National party won several seats in the Romanian parliament. When Romania became an authoritarian state in 1938, the position of Ukrainians in Bukovyna grew even worse. In the 1930s an underground nationalist movement led by Orest Zybachynsky and Denys Kvitkovsky gained strength. To counteract it, the Romanian government staged two political trials in 1937.<br><br>In spite of government persecution, Ukrainian organizations—such as the People's Home in Chernivtsi (headed by O. Kupchanko); the Ukrainska Shkola educational society (led by A. Kyryliv and Teofil Bryndzan); the musical societies Bukovynskyi Kobzar (Chernivtsi 1920–40) and the Ukrainian Male Choir; the Women's Hromada in Bukovyna (headed by Olha Huzar); the student societies Zaporozhe, Chornomore, and Zalizniak; and the Ukrainian Theater (headed by Sydir Terletsky and Ivan Dutka) - continued their cultural activities. The publication of the daily Chas (Chernivtsi) by Lev Kohut, several weeklies—Khliborobs’ka pravda, Ridnyi krai (Chernivtsi), Rada (Chernivtsi), and Samostiinist’—and the journal Samostiina dumka was an important achievement.<br><br>Under Romanian domination there were 155 Ukrainian Orthodox parishes (out of a total of 310), 135 Ukrainian priests, and 330,000 church members in Bukovyna. The Greek Catholic church had 17 parishes and 17 priests. In 1923–30 it constituted the Bukovynian apostolic administration with its center in Seret. Then it became a general vicariate subordinated to the Romanian diocese of Baia Mare.<br><br>1940–5. On 28 June 1940 the Romanians withdrew from the Ukrainian part of Bukovyna in response to an ultimatum from the USSR, and Soviet troops moved in. By decision of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on 2 August, northern Bukovyna, together with northern Bessarabia and a small part of old Romania containing the town of Hertsa, became Chernivtsi oblast. During the year-long Soviet occupation some radical changes took place in Bukovyna: private property was nationalized; farms were partly collectivized; and education was Ukrainianized. At the same time all Ukrainian organizations were disbanded, and many publicly active Ukrainians were either killed or exiled. A significant part of the Ukrainian intelligentsia had emigrated to Romania or Germany when the Soviet occupation began. When the German-Soviet war broke out and the Soviet troops retreated from Bukovyna, Ukrainians tried to establish their own local government, but they could not withstand the advance of the Romanian army. In July 1941 almost 1,000 Bukovynians fled to Galicia, where they formed the Bukovynian Battalion of 1941 under the leadership of Petro Voinovsky. This company joined the OUN expeditionary groups of the OUN (Melnyk faction) and reached Kyiv. In 1941–4 the Romanians set up a military dictatorship in Bukovyna (which was turned into a Generalgouvernement), established concentration camps, put prominent Ukrainians (Olha Huzar, M. Zybachynsky, and others) on trial, prohibited any kind of civic and cultural work, and introduced total Romanianization. At this time partisan groups sprang up in the mountains of Bukovyna forming the Bukovynian-Ukrainian Self-Defense Army. Under V. Luhovy's leadership these units fought the Romanians and, in 1944, the Soviets.<br><br>In March 1944 Soviet troops occupied northern Bukovyna for the second time. The Paris Peace Treaty of 1947 between the Allies and the Romanians (see Paris Peace Treaties of 1947) recognized the Soviet-Romanian border that had been established in 28 June 1940. The Soviet government created in Bukovyna the same conditions of life as in the Ukrainian SSR.<br><br><a href="http://www.encyclopediaofukraine.com/display.asp?linkpath=pages\B\U\Bukovyna.htm" target="_blank">http://www.encyclopediaofukraine.com/display.asp?linkpath=pa...</a><br><br> <br> <br>2013-10-29 13:10:44ZMighthelphttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/146.12.1/mb.ashxRe: Surname--Letschuk?

This is a male name in Eastern Slavic languages, Ukrainian, Belarusyn and Russian. In Ukrainian the name is Mykita, in Belarusyn it's Mikita and in Russian it's Nikita. It is all the same name. <br><br>Nowadays it's very trendy to make up names, notwithstanding the sex of the child. In my husband's family there is a little girl called McKenna, which literally translates to SON OF KENNA, A HANDSOME MAN in Scottish. When I asked about this name, I was told that it is listed as a very popular girl's name in America. Another one of those is Sasha, which in Eastern Slavic is found as a diminutive for Alexander. It's a boy's nickname, but today there is even a girl in the White House w/this name. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>2013-09-11 17:14:35ZMighthelphttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/322.2.2.2.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Surname--Letschuk?

Fire in the Kamenets Podolsky City-State Archives<br><br>On April 9, 2003, a fire destroyed a massive amount of Jewish and civil records stored in a warehouse of the archives in Kamenets Podolsky. Five of the most valuable fonds (record groups) were destroyed including fonds: 112, 226, 228, 249 and 678. Among the very valuable documents destroyed were the revision lists (lists of inhabitants) dating back into the 1700s. For more information about this fire and the types of documents that were destroyed, click on "News Flash" above. All surviving historic documents from this archive have been transferred to the Khmelnitskiy Oblast Archives. According to the director of the Ukraine State Archives, the surviving documents are not accessible for research until further notice, later in 2004. When the documents are available for research, it will be announced on the 'News Alert' on this website. At this time, there is no town-by-town listing available as to which documents survived and which documents were destroyed. Therefore, this website will not delete any entries from the archive <br>database, as a memorial to 'what was.'<br><br><a href="http://www.rtrfoundation.org/results.php?townName=KAMENETS%20PODOLSKIY" target="_blank">http://www.rtrfoundation.org/results.php?townName=KAMENETS%2...</a>2013-09-12 23:45:47ZMighthelphttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/323.1/mb.ashxRe: Kamenetz Podolskhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.eeurope.ukraine.khmelnytska/19.92.2/mb.ashx
